Consider the equation S + O2 ? SO2. What is the product? Question 3 options: S SO 2 S + SO 2 O 2
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer : The product in the given balanced reaction is, sulfur dioxide (SO_2).

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

S+O_2\rightarrow SO_2

This reaction occurs when sulfur react with oxygen gas to give sulfur dioxide gas as a product.

In the given balanced chemical reaction, sulfur (S) and oxygen gas (O_2) are the reactants and sulfur dioxide (SO_2) is the product.

Hence, the product in the given balanced reaction is, sulfur dioxide (SO_2).

How is testing for brca1 or brca2 different from testing for a gene such as the tay-sachs gene? explain your answer in your labo
natka813 [3]

The BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 genes are two genes that are sought in the genetic study of an individual in order to seek a predisposition to breast cancer (in women and also in men).

The genes of Tay-sachs, are researched in order to diagnose or eliminate Tay-sachs disease.

The first difference lies in the goal of the research: for the BRCA (screening) genes, a predisposition is sought and for the Tay-sachs genes, it is sought to confirm the disease.

The second lies in the technique used:

The first step in the study of these genes is to isolate and replicate them. The best technique for this is the PCR (polymerase chain reaction). By using primers we can amplify the gene we want. So the primers used in BRCA and Tay-Sachs research are necessarily different.

Edouard van Beneden proposed that an egg and a sperm, each containing half the complement of chromosomes found in somatic cells,
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. Zygote

Explanation:

Edouard van Beneden was a zoology professor at the University of Liège whose worked showed how chromosomes are organized during gamete formation or during meiosis process.

During meiosis, the chromosomes number is reduced to half so each gamete contains half of the chromosome found in somatic cell and are called haploid cells. This reduction in chromosome number is necessary to bring the correct number of chromosomes in the zygote.

During fertilization, sperms fuse with eggs to produce a single diploid cell that is known as zygote. So the zygote has 46 chromosome in which half comes from sperm and half from the egg.
